Not sure of companies but from seeing other threads on here you are talking minimum €600 generally for Data Recovery. A lot of quotes people have got on here from various places seem to be closer to the €1000 mark to get their data recovered.

These seem to be the cheapest - few if any down here have clean rooms and would have to ship off the drive to a real data recovery company
